Antonio "Papi" is the best drink slinger. Martinis are fire.

Very disappointed! Our tickets for Winter Wonderland promised complimentary glasses but they ran out. Which happens - not a big deal - but they have not contacted me like they said they would and have not returned any of the 6 phone calls I politely left, nor the email I wrote. I am BAFFLED by the disregard for customer relations and holding up to the promise of these very expensive tickets.

Nightingale is one of the best places for nightlife in Des Moines. If you get in early in the day, the atmosphere is more laid back with stellar cocktails for all palettes in actual glass drink-ware. Post-9:30 PM is when it moves into more of night club experience. Know that you get what you pay for, cover is occasionally charged based on entertainment that night, and they do have a tendency to get busy, but it’s always a great time. Staff is great, atmosphere is awesome, and the drinks changing all the time to stay fresh.

Apparently its okay with the staff here to treat customers poorly, me and my friend were shoved out violently by a guy whole supposedly worked there just for standing inside out of the rain waiting for a ride. If this is how you treat paying customers during pride month I suggest never coming here.

Gabby the bartender is amazing. One of the best. Gave her ideas of drinks I liked and trusted her to make me new ones Ive never had. Im in town for a couple months as a travel nurse and had such a good time. Will be back before I leave
